It would not be exaggeration to say that, the failure of Department
has proved to be a turning point for the career of Ram Gopal Varma. There were
a lot of expectations for Ramu from the film. However, all of them have fail
flat on face in spite of big names and famous faces in the film.
That has cast a huge spell of disappointment for RGV. Ramu was
supposed to get a big deal from a corporate company which had to sign a deal of
four films with the veteran director. This deal was reportedly known to be of Rs.
100 cr. This deal was to happen about 15 days prior to the release of Department.
On the other hand, Ram Gopal Varma was suggesting that they
should wait for the release of the film that took place in the last month. However,
a payment of Rs. 10 crores was already made as an advance.
After the debacle of Department, the corporate house
was not willing to continue with the deal. They also asked for the advance to
be refunded. But as far as the RGV side is concerned, they insist that the deal
is not over yet and the work for the November 26 Mumbai attacks is on.
